Tripeptide-32 is a synthetic peptide consisting of three amino acids proline, serine and threonine

Peptides are substances consisting of two or more amino acids linked together by a linear chain. Synthetic peptides can be generated as copies of protein fragments by incorporating non-proteinogenic amino acids and modified so as to also increase the proteolytic stability of the molecules.

What it is used for and where

Cosmetics

• Skin conditioning agent. It is the mainstay of topical skin treatment as it has the function of restoring, increasing or improving skin tolerance to external factors, including melanocyte tolerance. The most important function of the conditioning agent is to prevent skin dehydration, but the subject is rather complex and involves emollients and humectants that can be added in the formulation.

Tripeptide-32 is known for its ability to regulate and enhance the skin’s repair cycles during sleep. It works by temporarily activating key cellular functions that are responsible for skin hydration and repair. This ingredient is commonly used in cosmetic products designed to be applied at night, helping the skin to maximize its recovery and renewal potential during resting hours. With these properties, Tripeptide-32 helps to improve skin texture, increase elasticity, and reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, contributing to a younger and healthier appearance.
